About Fast Foods, Fried Chicken, Thigh, meat only, skin and breading removed
This is the dark thigh meat eaten on its own, with the crispy skin and breading taken off. It keeps the juicy, full flavor that makes thighs popular while shedding much of the fat and salt that the fried coating adds.
Per 100 grams the meat alone provides about 182 calories, with a solid 23 grams of protein and 9.9 grams of fat — less than half the fat of the same thigh eaten with its skin and breading. Carbohydrate is negligible, cholesterol is around 124 milligrams (dark meat runs a little higher than breast), and sodium is about 504 milligrams per 100 grams.
Skinned, unbreaded thigh meat is a good middle ground: more flavor and moisture than breast, but far lighter than the fully fried piece. It's naturally a bit fattier and higher in cholesterol than breast meat, so it suits anyone who wants taste without the breading's extra calories and salt; the cooking-added sodium is the main remaining watch-point.
